Each person is connected to some kind of group, even though some may not be aware of it. Very likely, you share a language, culture, family, belief, or custom with some other people.

Prejudice makes us treat people differently. For example, if a \u2018normal\u2019 kid goes into a singing competition with the child of a music superstar, people will immediately think that the child of the superstar will win. Why? Prejudice can also be well-intended.

A stereotype is a very distorted view or idea about something. For example, pink is for girls, or basketball is for tall people. A stereotype is learned at a very early age, and children grow to have very strong ideas or opinions about things, groups, or ideologies. As children grow up, the lines of like and hate for other things, people, cultures, beliefs, languages become sharper.
